The MongoDB Management Service API has been released to the public, offering a REST-based interface for programmatic access to its features. The API allows users to perform various actions such as managing hosts, groups, and users, starting and stopping backups, and more. To use the API, an API key must be created and API access enabled for MMS group(s), with detailed documentation available for getting started. Future versions of the API are planned to add new functionality without compromising backward compatibility, including backup management and integration with third-party dashboards. Users can provide feedback and submit feature requests through a designated ticket queue.
